Continental has launched its first drive axle tyre developed exclusively for low-liners. The Conti EcoPlus HD3 has been designed to suit the requirements of the large volume transport sector, and can handle loads of up to 11.6-tonnes despite its low diameter.
It’s the lowest profile tyre in its class, and means fleet operators can make best use of the three-metre internal load height of the trailer, without exceeding the European permitted total height.
The Conti EcoPlus HD3 is available in 315/45 R22.5 size. Later in the year it will be joined by the Conti EcoPlus HS3 in size 355/50 R22.5.
